You must run the game as an Administrator to add the Right Click context menu's for replays.

I am loged as Administrator
How can i get back that options, I had this before few days today only disapire :)

[MihaiS]

Use a restore point.
Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore
Then select the "Restore my computer to an earlier time" option. Click "Next".
Chose a restore point (preferably one that was created before the occurring problem), click "Next" then wait for your system to restore the settings to the specified date. You won't lose files you created after the selected date.

[MrBunsy]

Have you actually run WA again since re-installing it?

[vfranges]

I have this problem as well. I've talked about it with CyberShadow but we were not able to determine the cause and how to fix it. I tried all the obvious solutions.

I'm running WA with full administrative rights. The registry keys are created (or altered if needed) when WA is started. Maybe some Windows update broke it, but it seems all my other context menu shortcuts are not affected. It's just the WA ones. :confused:

[Wormetti]

You can perform all those context menu options from the command line, just run wa.exe with one of these parameters (replace with correct folder name and replay name).

Playblack
/dir "C:\games\wa" /play "C:\games\wa\User\Games\example.WAgame"

Playblack At...
/dir "C:\games\wa" /playat "C:\games\wa\User\Games\example.WAgame"

Extract map
/dir "C:\games\wa" /getmap "C:\games\wa\User\Games\example.WAgame"

Extract scheme
/dir "C:\games\wa" /getscheme "C:\games\wa\User\Games\example.WAgame"

Extract video
/dir "C:\games\wa" /getvideo "C:\games\wa\User\Games\example.WAgame"

Export log
/dir "C:\games\wa" /getlog "C:\games\wa\User\Games\example.WAgame"

Repair
/dir "C:\games\wa" /repair "C:\games\wa\User\Games\example.WAgame"

Example:

"c:\games\wa\wa.exe" /dir "C:\games\wa" /getmap "C:\games\wa\User\Games\example.WAgame"

Hi, I have this problem too and tried Wormetti's fix, but I think I may have misunderstood something from the example at the end. Here's what I type in my 'Run':

C:\Team17\Worms Armageddonwa.exe /dir "C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon" /getmap "C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon\User\Games\2009-04-16 16.55.00 [Online] Moonpie, Negeroid, versace, @normal-game-guy.WAgame"

What should it be instead? Thanks!

[franpa]

C:\Team17\Worms Armageddonwa.exe /dir "C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon" /getmap "C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon\User\Games\"2009-04-16 16.55.00 [Online] Moonpie, Negeroid, versace, @normal-game-guy.WAgame""

You need the extra quote marks around the file name if there is a space in it.

[Muzer]

No you don't.

"C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon\wa.exe" /dir "C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon" /getmap "C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon\User\Games\2009-04-16 16.55.00 [Online] Moonpie, Negeroid, versace, @normal-game-guy.WAgame"

[ngg]

No you don't.

"C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon\wa.exe" /dir "C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon" /getmap "C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon\User\Games\2009-04-16 16.55.00 [Online] Moonpie, Negeroid, versace, @normal-game-guy.WAgame"that did it!! thanks guys!!:D

[Rambo`]

lol, it happens to me sometimes too, and i put open with, search worms, and it ussually works

[GrO]

@ vfranges, Koen-ftw, ngg, Rambo` did You use some system cleaning apps like CCleaner, REGCleaner or any other stuff of that kind?

Sometimes inproper usage of registry cleaning applications may bring really bad results, so I'm just curious.

[franpa]

Any use of a registry/hard disk cleaner program is a bad idea, all they do is remove things based on heurustics.

I don't think it's a bad idea at all.

I personally do use CCleaner. And it seldom cause problems to me.

The only bad use of these programs is: checking every box on the list, delete everything you seen, and not reviewing every item before deleting.

I suggest people not touch these programs unless you have some knowledge about the operating system (files, registries, etc.), and you know what you are doing.
